The Wallflowers – Asleep At The Wheel (Guitar)

E                                     C#m    A
Do you ever stop to count all the invitations

       E                                         C#m    A
At the end of the day when it comes down to one decision

   E                                          C#m    A
Of dead beat girls and freaks at a peoples convention

E                                   C#m    A
All these sugars with no vitamin sensation

E                                   C#m    A
Do you ever stop to look over old relations

   E                                    C#m    A
Or look to the belly of another one's emotions

E                                   C#m    A
Someone young in the winds of a revolution

E                                 C#m    A
Trying to save his face in the evolution

  B           E
Asleep at the wheel

   A    B
No windshield

G#
But you know that the streets

           C#m   B
Here don't change

            E                              C#m    A
He's kept alive in the chain of mental starvation

E                                      C#m    A
Bone rail skinny, only feeding off frustration

E                                C#m    A
Unlike you who seem bred from corruption

E                                     C#m    A
Feeding off the plates of an ununited nation

  B           E
Asleep at the wheel

   A    B
No windshield

G#
But you know that the streets

           C#m   B
Here don't change

       E                                              C#m    A
With a lover in the street whose waiting to make a connection

   E                                       C#m    A
To be the mother to the soul of your next abortion

       E                                              C#m    A
She'll steal your money with the eyes of a baby's complexion

            E                              C#m    A
Then she'll laugh at you and your sexual invention

E                                         C#m    A
Smelling like a rose, in the flowers of devotion

   E                               C#m    A
Devoted the heat of a spotlight in motion

       E                                          C#m    A
With a face full of mud even though you were only joking

   E                                        C#m    A
As if you really understood the value of isolation

  B           E
Asleep at the wheel

   A    B
No windshield

G#
But you know that the streets

           C#m   B
Here don't change

     E                                              C#m    A
Your tongue so fast like a freight train coming on rollin'

      E                                             C#m    A
Every smile you give's just to keep your mouth from clothin'

      E                                C#m    A
Every engine burns as a sign of the explosion

E                                  C#m    A
Locked in neutral your engines are broken

     E                                  C#m    A
Like candle wax that sun melts into the ocean

         E                                            C#m    A
Like the moon that lights the tracks of the old train station

        E                                      C#m    A
You can color in the lines of mother earth's addictions

    E                                           C#m    A
And not hold a gun in the face of the earth's abduction

  B           E
Asleep at the wheel

   A    B
No windshield

G#
But you know that the streets

           C#m   B
Here don't change
